[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Punishingly Intricate

Actually we're generally polite to each other because the vast majority of us are nice friendly people.

Yeah, this has been my experience as well.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Fire Festival

That's ... gorgeous.

I want to go to Kiev!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

A friend of mine said that Americans are only polite to each other beacuse they don't know if the other one is armed.

As long as you're not in my way you can pack whatever heat you want.

You missed this year's fire festival, but you have a year to save up, get your visa, make preparations for next year's (stock up on flammables).

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Actually we're generally polite to each other because the vast majority of us are nice friendly people.

Yeah, I thought that statement was a bit odd too.

But I could still use a little more of opinion and a little less of reservation about expressing opinions. Opinions never killed anyone - actions did.

I can light water on fire. It's my superpower.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

One nice things about New Yorkers and our legendary brusqueness is we don't care WHERE the hell you're from - if you're lingering at the top or the bottom of the subway stairs (and have no discernable impairment) you're a war criminal.

Well that's true of any business center. My building is downtown and in the middle of our CBD. There are pedestrian tunnels that connect it to all the other major downtown buildings, and my train stop is one away from the touristy stop. This means I am forever trying not to yell at older ladies and their umpteen Neiman's bags blocking the train door, people wandering our food court while I'm trying to grab a quick lunch, and heavens help me if it State Fair time because that's when my train is full of suburbanites using park and ride to avoid parking fees.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I generally don't tend to ponder the armedness of people unless they look like undercover cops or there is a suspicious bulge.

And unless you have a concealed carry law, chances are slim you have to worry about it.

WE. MUST. GO.

This is very true.
